Comments:

Background: ASK is a regulatory subunit for CDC7 which activates its kinase activity thereby playing a central role in DNA replication and cell proliferation. It is required for progression of S phase. The complex CDC7-DBF4A selectively phosphorylates MCM2 subunit at 'Ser-40' and 'Ser-53' and then is involved in regulating the initiation of DNA replication during cell cycle.

Application Details

Application Notes: The suggested dilution is: ELISA ~~ 1:1,000 Western blotting~~ 50-100
